If I Saw You Earlier

Chapter 28

As Mark fell on the floor I realized one thing. Me and James were alone. No one could help us. I didn't even know what kind of demon he became.
" so you want to play it that way, huh?". Mark was making James more angry than he was.
" Just don't break your halo". Mark added with a stupid smile.

Mark was up and ready to fight. He took his shirt of and I noticed a tattoo on his chest.
" Alice, sweet little Alice. I got this tattoo for you. See that fire. It represents us demons".
" go away and please don't come back!". I shouted at him. I walked back to that bedroom. And I realized that was it.

I had no brother. My boyfriend might get hurt and I was a toy. That toy kids fought over in kindergarten.

I sat on the bed. Wondered when that was going to be over.

" what kind of demon font understand that he himself can't fly when the sun is up?". That was right. Mark couldn't fly now.

" I can come later. Hopefully you won't be in bed with her". He said it with a louder voice. He wanted to make sure I heard that. And I hated him even more.

James knocked softly on the door. I walked with tears in my eyes. He opened his arms and I fell into them. I cried. I have lost a family. Now we were three. I had no brother. I cried cause I was scared of the thing that might happen tonight.

" baby that's alright. We can take care of this. My uncle lives here remember. And he has tons of friends. And all of then are good fighters. They will make sure we will be safe". I smiled through my tears. I was hungry and scared. The food was in the kitchen or in the car. And I was protected by an angel.

" want to have some lunch". I just nodded for an answer.

We ate those burgers fast. I was so hungry. He was nice to buy 4 meals not only two.

" wanna watch a movie in bed while eating desert?".
I thought about it with a smile. It was getting darker and I had no idea how long Mark and James stood out there talking. Time went fast.

" I want to eat desert, forget the movie part". I said. In fact I wanted to sleep and forget about all of this.
